What do you think about changing immune to morale to a ld 15 bubble? I see that hordes and morale immune buffs such as Abaddon with cultist spam and prenerf conscripts with commissar. Theese units while naturally being hard to remove point effectively need to fail morale to have some kind of balance, but I see a commissar nerf for abbadon would just destroy the character (I bet gw don’t sell many commissars now).

A ld 15 bubble would still make units up to 10 models effectively immune to morale, units of 15 routing 50% of the time with 13 casualties, but a 40 man blob would statistically rout at 26 models killed in a turn, wich I think is fair.

What would you say, would this help the cultist spam?

No point really, most things that have it would already be dead by time a roll would be needed.

It should be make them LD 10 and roll 2 dice and discard the higher result. you have to use the lowest.


These are my opinions. This is how I feel. Others may feel differently. This needs to be stated for some reason.

Point is it is needed, as the list with 200 cultists and abbadon prove. I think it’s an ok way to nerf the insanely spammy chaf lists

Given his point cost and the inferiority of Black Legion he is probably ok in a vacuum. An easier solution would be to errata the Cloud of Flies stratagem to only have other Death Guard units shield the protected unit. That way if you chaff/poxwalker source is Black Legion they provide reduced value. A much easier fix than changing all morale rules around one combo.
